There is nothing 100%, as in life too............but if your reasonably prudent you try to minimize your exposure. ;)

The glue got on my fingers before I knew it and I pulled some paint off the bottom wing... really sucked.I solemnly swear to "over-celebrate" the smallest of victories.~Lucky B*st*rd~

You CG aft swinging gear with gear up first of all, thus when it is down you will have a somewhat nose heavy condition which is OK.........a lot better than a tail heavy bird when retracted.
A picture is worth a 1000 words. This is where my flies rock solid.

I set flaps @ 15 degrees for T/O and 30 degrees for Landing. Your gonna luv this bird RM.
I liked it's overall flight characteristics sooooo much that the jump into a giant scale twin for me was without a doubt the ESM 2110mm Tigercat.
I'll be starting a build thread on that in the not to distant weeks. ;)Warbird Charlie

She's like a high wing trainer to fly!
I went with Charlie's recommended flap settings and at half flap I have no elevator mix and a slight amount at full flaps. You can land without flaps if you have to, no biggie, but at 15 degrees its even easier to land, you can try full flaps and determine just how much elevator mix you want.
This is a dream plane to fly!!
Once you get into it, we'll let the modder come alive and the next thing you know you'll be yanking motors for more speed!!
